When you look at the bank accounts and subsequent lives of the imaginations that came up with both, perhaps one can take them more seriously than one can take you?
Sarcasm is far from a philosophical refutation!
Very far!

What does this even mean? What is your point? What are you attempting to, somehow refute?Jan Sand wrote: ↑March 9th, 2018, 2:15 am If nothing else, attempting to psychoanalyze a mythical being to make sense of actuality is something of an ego trip. Start smaller and then advance to larger possibilities. Try psychoanalyzing the average sympathies a spider might have for an entrapped fly and move on from there.
A mistake I hope those clergymen have corrected at this time.Ser10Rec1pr0 wrote: ↑March 7th, 2018, 11:13 am At the time of the essay, the social science "economics" recently had been "admitted" into the realm of the exact sciences.
I love this perspective. I think it's an excellent example of how limiting words can be when one comes upon the realization of "oneness"/unity.Namelesss wrote: ↑March 5th, 2018, 10:22 pm"Schizophrenia; the fragmentation of that which is One!"StayCurious wrote: ↑March 3rd, 2018, 6:59 pm While science and art do seem very much so intertwined, do you see any differences one could use to distinguish one from the other, be it intent, perception, or other?
Thought/duality is what fragments and creates 'contrast' that 'this' can be distinguished from 'that'.
The Reality is One!
It is easy to fragment, to define, to distinguish, to discriminate, to limit... that is why we are here, that the Universe/God/Self can be Self Aware!
But Reality is not fragmented as we perceive it to be. To 'believe' in the fragmentation is insanity!
Drawing distinctions are done all the time, everyone does it.
But;
"The Tao is the leveler of all things!"
The 'Middle Way' is equidistant from all Perspectives, the 'chrono-synclastic infundibulum', where all 'apparent' opposites/distinctions are resolved;
"Every kind of partial and transitory disequilibrium must perforce contribute towards the great equilibrium of the whole.." - Rene' Guenon
Science examines fragments, then fragments the fragments to examine! (Doing it's part that ALL is Known!)
Enlightenment/unconditional Love assimilates all apparent 'fragments' into the One! (Knowing All! *__- )
True! So, enter the 'tool' of duality/thought to provide those 'sub-units'!
You are correct, that without the ego/thought/duality... "schizophrenia" (if you believe it)... not anything is perceivable, not anything exists to be perceived/experienced.Comprehension is derived with the realization that sub-units interact in useful and distinguishable parts. This is where knowledge lies.
